In the following compounds, the decreasing order of basic strength will be:

In the following compounds, the decreasing order of basic strength will be:
  1.  C2H5NH2>NH3>(C2H5)2NH
  2.  (C2H5)NH>NH3>C2H5NH2
  3. NH3>C2H5NH2>(C2H5)2NH
  4.  (C2H5)2NH>C2H5NH2>NH3

Solution

Basic character  +I effect
-CH2CH3 exert +I effect so, more the number of -CH2CH3 groups more is the basic character.
NH3<CH3CH2NH21o Amine<(CH3CH2)2NH2o Amine
